SOWING SEEDS OF GREATNESS

Regardless of what we encounter or go through in our lives, when we give it to Jesus and wait patiently (it may be hard) He will handle it in His righteous way. So, we see in Luke 8:5-15, a parable about a Sower of seeds (this is he who proclaim the gospel of salvation; who tell others about God’s Word, Jesus: The Seeds of Greatness) who scatters seeds in different places, with some falling on good ground and producing fruit, and others falling on the wayside, on rocks, or among thorns. This is he who tell others about God’s Word, Jesus, going in various random directions.

If you want something to brag about, be proud of, or show off to the world, talk, think, show and tell the sin sick world about Christ Jesus. He is the answer we should be giving to any question asked in the world today. We are to be about the LORD’s business every day – following in Yashuah’s, Jesus’ footsteps; exuding (strongly and openly) the depth of wisdom we have been given, as we sow the seeds of greatness, Jesus, God’s Word. We do this through prayer, praise, meditation (have a little talk with Jesus), with family or with whomever you meet; don’t forget the infallible, catching smile. And it does not mean you only do this in the morning, even though that is a great way to start your day. Because when you continue to sow, you are bound to come across someone whose heart is open and receptive. You or I do not know what batch will be prosperous, those you share with in the morning or those you share with in the evening. It can and should continue throughout the day, until you lay your head down to sleep. (Ecclesiastes 11:6: 6 In the morning sow thy seed, and in the evening withhold not thine hand: for thou knowest not whether shall prosper, either this or that, or whether they both shall be alike good).

The way we present Elohim’s Word can and does have a lasting effect on the subject of your sharing (sowing), the person you want to share the Good News with. So, take care to consider where that person is in their life and how receptive (through God’s Allowance) he/she is, you may need to prime the pump by sharing gradually; is the person’s ground (heart) too hard to receive it, yet? Does it need a little more show of love than shove? Has it become so caught up amongst and clouded from the glitz, glamor, delusions, confusions, worries and cares of this world that it is closed to receiving the truth, God’s Word? In this state, this is where patience and compassion come in. Because sometimes if we move too fast, the desired effect of God’s effort, through us, will be overshadowed by the loud obnoxious teaching of society or our own vanity and pride, and is lost. Our approach should be one that is kind and patient. We are to display the goodness, which Jesus showed as teachers, and be gentle while teaching those who don’t agree with you. (2 Timothy 2:23-26 23 But foolish and unlearned questions avoid, knowing that they do gender strifes. 24 And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient, 25 In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth; 26 And that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will).

Or have you sown to one who is ready to receive and grow, leading others to a relationship with God, in Jesus’ name; as in good ground which continues to bear the best fruit? One who become God’s beacon of hope for others who are hurting and in need of knowledge regarding God’s good and faithfulness, and a friend. We as His followers are to teach according to Matthew 28:18-20, Jesus’ Great Commission. In it He instructs us to spread His Word and then allow others to come voluntarily (on their own with pure intention and truthful heart), not through force nor coercion. He wants us to go tell it on every mountain, in the valley, down the street, in our household, everywhere (He will take care of where it falls); to declare the gospel, which was previously and, in most cases, still is, unknown in the world today (look at the signs). He wants us to go out every day and be His mouthpiece and proclaim the message of salvation, but we are not to enforce His commands on an unredeemed world: Everyone must make the choice to come to Christ for themselves.  An no matter what the world say, keep sowing God’s Seeds of Greatness (Jesus). GOD’S GOT IT NO WORRY NO FEAR. Romans 10:9–11 9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. 10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. 11 For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.

Matthew 28:16-20 16 Then the eleven disciples went away into Galilee, into a mountain where Jesus had appointed them. 17 And when they saw him, they worshipped him: but some doubted. 18 And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. 19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the  ther, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: 20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen).

I am a wife, mother, grandmother and great grand. I love my family, friends and everyone I meet. But most of all I love me some YHWH Who is the lifter of my head and the light of my life's pathway. Without Him I can do nothing but with Him nothing is impossible for me to do.
